From the plural forms Olimpiades, Olympiades, and Olympiadiz of Middle English Olimpias and Olympias (“ancient Olympic Games, 4-year period between these games, intense battle or competition”) from Middle French Olympiade and Old French Olympiade (“ancient Olympic games, 4-year period between these games”), from Latin Olympias (“4-year period between Olympic Games”) whose genitive form was Olympiados or Olympiadis), from Ancient Greek Ὀλυμπῐᾰ́ς (Olumpiás, “ancient Olympic Games, 4-year period between these games”) whose plural form was Ὀλυμπῐᾰ́δες (Olumpiádes), from Ὀλυμπῐ́ᾱ (Olumpíā, “Olympia”), the town in ancient Greece where the games were held, + -ᾰ́ς (-ás, a suffix forming feminine adjectives or nouns), from either Ὀλῠ́μπῐος (Olúmpios, “of or related to Mount Olympus, Olympian, the Olympian Zeus”) or Ὄλῠμπος (Ólumpos, “Mount Olympus”) + -ῐ́ᾱ (-íā, suffix forming feminine abstract nouns).
The use of olympiad for academic competitions aspiring to the level of the Olympic Games was first popularized by the International Mathematical Olympiad, a calque of its Romanian name Olimpiada Internațională de Matematică.

Emperor Naruhito was caught in a conundrum when it came to wording in his speech in Japanese to declare the 2020 Tokyo Olympics open during the July 23 Opening Ceremony at the National Stadium.

[…] Following discussions among central government officials and the Tokyo Olympic organizing committee, it was decided to allow Naruhito to use "kinensuru" for celebrating. The term has more of a nuance of marking or commemorating an important occasion.

Its discovery, after a sleep of some five centuries and a half, will be as great a surprise to meteorologists as a new classical text, such as the ‘Mimiambs’ of Herondas, to Greek scholars.

1891 November 28, The Athenæum, number 3344, London: J. Lection, →OCLC, page 726:

For example, the school scene in the third mimiamb, the outburst of fierce jealousy on the part of Bitinna in Herondas and that of the Oxyrhynchus μοιχευτρία, the obscene conversation in the sixth mimiamb, and the tales of adultery committed by women which, according to Aristocles, formed the chief subject of the poems recited by the λυσιῳδοί.

1917, Ph[ilippe] E[rnest] Legrand, translated by James Loeb, The New Greek Comedy, London: W. Heinemann; New York, N.Y.: G.P. Putnam's Sons, →OCLC, page 524:

Matius's mimiambs have not survived complete, but the extant remains may not be unrepresentative of his general style of writing.

Titanomachy

From Ancient Greek Τῑτᾱνομαχίᾱ (Tītānomakhíā), from Τῑτᾱ́ν (Tītā́n, “Titan”) + μάχη (mákhē, “battle”) + -ια (-ia).

1966, M. L. West (editor), Hesiod, Theogony: edited with prolegomena and commentary by M.L. West, Oxford University Press (Clarendon Press), page 337,
A more important difference between the Titanomachy and Ragnarok is that the Norse gods, the Æsir, do not fight against other gods who are afterwards bound, but against an assortment of giants and monsters who have hitherto been bound […] .

His^([Thallus’]) history was arranged in three books, and, in part, by olympiads, and covered material from the Titanomachy (dated to 322 years before the Trojan war) to at least the Crucifixion.

2001, Benjamin Garstad, “Theophilus of Antioch, Pseudo-Justin, and Thallus' Treatment of Moses”, in M. F. Wiles, E. J. Yarnold, P. M. Parvis, editors, Studia Patristica, Vol. XXXVI: Papers presented at the Thirteenth International Conference on Patristic Studies, Peeters Publishers, page 207:

Likewise, the tragedy's treatment of the Titanomachy departs significantly from the Hesiodic account. It has been suggested that the PV^([Prometheus Vinctus]) may be informed by the Cyclic epic Titanomachy attributed to Eumelus (or Arctinus),⁷² especially since an entry in Hesychius' Lexicon⁷³ has led some to believe that both Prometheus' involvement in the Titanomachy and his change of allegiance were elements of that Cyclic epic.

2017, Zoe Stamatopoulou, Hesiod and Classical Greek Poetry: Reception and Transformation in the Fifth Century BCE, Cambridge University Press, page 150:

(Greek mythology) The mythological war between the Titans and the Olympian gods.

Titanomachie

But according to Lycophron, the last of the Greek poets, Penelope committed adultery with one of the suitors at the persuasion of the aged Nauplius, who avenged the death of his son Palamedes by enticing almost all the wives of the Greeks into prostitution.

2003, Giovanni Boccaccio, translated by Virginia Brown, Famous Women, page 81:

A scene from Aristophanes' Women at the Thesmophoria (765-84) preserves a parody of the event which featured Palamedes' brother Oeax writing a message on oars in the hope that one will reach his father Nauplius with news of the betrayal and murder.

2013, Isabelle Torrance, Metapoetry in Euripides, page 145:

(Greek mythology) A descendant of the founder of Nauplia who ruled the city (alternatively, Euboea), was one of the Argonauts, and was father to Palamedes, who fought in the Trojan War.

From Ancient Greek Ἀστυάναξ (Astuánax, “city lord”), the nickname for the firstborn son of Hector, protector of Troy.

uder

1712, Ambrose Philips, The Distrest Mother, [adapted from 1667, Jean Racine, Andromaque], 1819, The Distrest Mother: A Tragedy, Act 1, Scene 1, page 3,
The jealous chiefs, and all the states of Greece, / With one united voice complain of Pyrrhus; / That now, forgetful of the promise giv'n, / And mindless of his godlike father's fate, / Astyanax he nurses in his court; Astyanax, the young, surviving hope / Of ruin'd Troy; Astyanax descended / From a long race of kings—great Hector's son.

After lying that the boy is dead and defying the threat of torture, she^([Andromache]) is unable to conceal her anguish for the boy's life and gives in to the threat that Hector's tomb will be destroyed if Astyanax is dead, that is, to the threat that both the sanctity of the tomb and the life of the boy will be destroyed together.

1983, Norman T. Pratt, Seneca's Drama, page 110:

In this passage, Andromaque sees Astyanax only through the memorializing lens of his attribution to Hector, his status as "gage."
